In a tragic incident, a speeding pickup truck fatally hit and dragged a cyclist’s body for 2 kilometres near Haryana’s Panniwala Mota village on NH 9 on Saturday. The video of the incident, made by people who chased the truck and later confronted the driver, is currently going viral on social media.

The victim, identified as 50-year-old Gurnam Singh from village Karmgarh, was cycling back to his village from Panniwala Mota when the pickup truck struck his bicycle near a police checkpoint on the highway. Despite efforts from a truck driver behind the pickup truck to signal and stop the vehicle, the pickup driver continued driving, dragging the trapped cyclist under the truck.

Eventually, the truck driver managed to stop the pickup truck by parking his own vehicle in front of it. He then courageously pulled the injured cyclist from under the pickup truck. Meanwhile, nearby angry bystanders started thrashing the pickup driver.
